I looked it up on the internet.
I read that Hericium Erinaceum is really good.
Many people with Alzheimer's...
have a folic acid deficiency.
Is that true?
Well...
I'm not sure if you must go that far.
- What? - Wait.
Are you saying that my condition is very grave?
It looks more like brain damage...
caused by a single impact than Alzheimer's.
It's not that serious.
Do you see the dark areas...
in the picture on the left?
At the bottom.
The damaged area is visible in the scans,
but compared to the photos you took before,
you seem to have improved.
Of course, if these incidents were to continue,
they could result in dementia.
Do you...
feel uncomfortable or unwell?
When I'm under great duress,
my left eyelid flutters like this.
It's a bit like a spasm or...
a tic.
What will you do now, Father?
What do you mean?
Will he stay here or go back?
You sly thing, Ho Rim.
You want me to go home.
Yes, I do, but...
What?
No, well...
I think living in a hotel can be inconvenient.
I won't go back.
Your house is so tiny.
I'll never, ever go back there, so don't worry.
No one even invited you to come back.
Our house is barely big enough for us three.
You should move.
Why won't you?
I bought you an apartment complex so you could move.
Do you have gold buried under your floorboards?
I can't move because...
the house holds good memories, not just bad ones.
I plan to stay in America for a while.
America?
He has a lot to do there regarding...
JJ Entertainment's US office.
He'll be in California for about a year.
I think...
it would be quite nice if you were to...
come with me.
You could see and feel Hollywood,
and it would be a great place to focus on your writing.
Whatever it is you want in life,
you will experience more than you imagined.
Dad will help you realize your dreams.
You got it?
You could see and feel Hollywood,
and it would be a great place to focus on your writing.
Dad will help you realize your dreams.
Hollywood.
What?
Are you stuck?
Yes.
I feel...
confused and distracted.
Ji Young.
How about...
you go with him?
Why are you afraid?
You told me that...
you'd create your own opportunities.
This is an opportunity. Grab it.
I'm scared.
I'm still getting used to...
having a dad.
How can I live where I don't know anyone?
And...
I don't speak English.
"Hi, thank you." that's it.
You can hire a translator.
Scripts are translated and sent all the time.
I signed a contract with JJ Entertainment.
What about that drama?
Push that back and go to Hollywood first.
What did you say?
You wanted to become Korea's Joanne Rowling.
Why are you dying to send me away?
You lived for everyone else until now.
There's a lot to think about...
and to give up here.
Eun Bi starts elementary school next year.
I heard that new school moms have a lot to do.
I'll take good care of her.
Go for just a year. Write all you want to.
Ji Young, it's Hollywood.
I'd love to have a wife in Hollywood.
So that's what you want.
I'll work and live hard while you're away.
I'll upgrade myself so I'll be able to protect you.
Trust me.
My daughter finally...
chose me over Ho Rim.
She chose Hollywood, not you, to be exact.
I really hate it...
when you state the facts so hurtfully.
You need to learn how to say some sweet nothings.
You don't know how to make someone feel good.
Ho Rim's much better than you at that.
He's a master of reactions.
This is my character.
Come on.
There's a spot on the Finance Team at JJ Entertainment's US office.
While Ji Young's with me,
why don't you work over there?
Me?
Didn't you say one should follow opportunities?
I'll give you a shot.
Show me how capable you are.
I apologize.
This is too big an opportunity for me to handle.
Could you give me some time?
I promise I will...
prove myself to you.
He turned down my offer.
I wonder why I feel so awful.
How dare someone like Ho Rim...
refuse an offer from me?
He's driving me crazy!
What will you do?
What will do you with the foundation in Bodoantia?
We must be cautious.
I'll be objective and see if I'm suitable.
You love Bodoantia more than anyone.
Do you reject the offer or accept it?
Give me some time.
Time is not free to give.
You just don't know what's good for you.
You aren't leaving for good.
I packed everything I'll need.
You can shop there.
When I have everything? That's a waste of money.
Do what you want.
Eun Bi, say bye.
Let's say goodbye.
No. Don't go, Mom.
Shall I stay?
Yes.
Eun Bi, we can visit her every Saturday.
Grandpa bought you a plane.
We can take that and fly over.
Give her a hug.
Take care, Mom.
I will.
I'll be back after six nights. That's not too long.
We can video call each other every night.
Okay.
Do you have your passport?
You bet I do.
Don't cause a fuss at the airport because you don't.
Where did I put it? I swear I had it.
You're so scatterbrained.
- I had it. - Eun Bi.
Look for the green thing in the room.
I'll look out here.
(1 year later)
Cut, okay.
Thanks a lot.
- Thank you. - Thanks, everyone.
Great job.
That looked great.
Are you in a shoot?
We just wrapped up. Why?
I think you should get over here.
The actors are refusing to shoot.
Ji Young.
Your drama's doing well.
I can't watch it because mine airs at the same time.
I'm just doing my best.
You seem to be doing well.
Sorry, force of habit.
I should call you CEO Lee.
Titles aren't important.
How are you doing?
Didn't you go abroad?
It's taking longer than I thought.
I look forward to hearing the news.
I have to go.
She's a workaholic.
How can she finish three projects in a year?
Do you have what I asked for?
Yes, yes.
Get it as soon as you can. Thanks.
How did it go?
I got full marks on the exam,
but they can't hire me because of my criminal record.
I studied really hard with the book you gave me.
I asked them to turn a blind eye.
Darn it.
I'm really sorry.
They told me to work somewhere else.
Somewhere else? Where?
Here.
Right here, in this office.
Here? You're kidding, aren't you?
Don't you dare.
Ta-da.
I got in.
I'm not the old Yang Yang.
Did they have to send you back here?
I think I feel hungry.
Let's celebrate my comeback with...
fried chicken.
Fried chicken?
You said you're not the old Yang Yang, but you are.
You got the job.
You should treat me, not the other way around.
You're rich.
How could a senior staff even think of leeching off a junior?
There's no seniority when it comes to leeching off others.
Where are you going?
The place we last ordered from.
Their chicken is the best.
It's on you.
Please, Mr. Han. Your treat?
Number two.
Doctor.
A letter from Ms. Lee.
Thank you.
Let's see.
I hope you're doing well.
I'll move back to Korea soon.
This is the last postcard I'll be sending you.
See you in Korea. I have so much to tell you.
"What's a girl looking like a dumpling doing here?"
What on earth does all this mean?
You scared me.
When did I talk like that?
You did so.
You said it's a touching, melo, family drama.
This is what you'd call a train wreck.
What father would call his daughter...
a dumpling?
When she's the apple of his eye?
That's what you said to me, the apple of your eye.
The day we first met.
Did I?
When did I say that? I don't remember.
Is my memory failing me again? Should I see a doctor?
I forgot. Doctor Edmund called.
You're perfectly fine.
Your brain's fresh.
What daughter would tell her dad...
his brain is fresh?
Are we zombies or what?
You phrase things very creatively, much like a writer should.
Good for you.
Bravo, okay, bravo.
My lady, it's time for your cover interview with Time magazine.
Hello, it's an honor to meet you, Ms. Lee.
I'm a reporter from Time, Asia.
Hi.
My name is also Lee Ji Young.
Is it really?
I met another Lee Ji Young.
Please sit.
Okay, please, please have a seat.
Ji Young, good luck.
Shall we talk about your work...
that was nominated for an Emmy?
That sweet and adorable thing...
is my daughter.
She's quite a good writer too.
Are you that pleased?
Every day is like a birthday.
What shall I do for your daughter's birthday?
It's her first birthday since we met.
It should be very special and legendary.
Get a list of party planners...
and send out invitations.
I will contact Tom in person.
We have to prepare to shoot Ji Young's next project.
Contact the director of photography.
What should we get her for her birthday?
A house in Malibu or a vineyard?
Or should I get her an island,
small and cute just like her?
Count, that's good too,
but how about you give her what she really wants?
What she really wants?
I can't imagine the family's support for you to be...
the Korean Joanne Rowling.
I think... My husband was my greatest supporter.
As the mom of a child,
it's not easy to start something new.
Mom, here's the washing.
Okay, leave it. I'll do the laundry.
Eun Bi, we're late.
- One last bite. - Eun Bi, hurry.
- Good girl. - Her teacher will scold her.
- Eun Bi. - Wear your backpack.
- Mom, wash up. - Sure, sure.
- See you. - Bye.
Despite all that, he gave me the courage...
to dream bigger.
That's my husband.
As you can see, the company is growing continuously.
It's not widely reported, but the speed of growth is amazing.
I suggest we invest in Hightek.
Wouldn't there be a high risk?
Shut your mouth. There's word that their debt...
is beyond what they can pay off themselves.
Yes. Hightek is currently...
developing an ultra-light, ultra-fast semiconductor.
Our investment goes to building a facility to produce them.
(Investment Agreement)
Thank you.
I thought he would never...
grow up or support me.
He was on my side.
Eun Bi, can I have a bite?
You finished yours already.
- I'm this much taller. - Right.
Then should I eat the same amount as you,
or should I eat more than you?
You can have one bite.
Thank you.
You ate it all.
No, I...
Mom.
Eun Bi, wait up.
Mr. Moon, review this and hand it in.
I'm going home.
- You're leaving early. - To go to Eun Bi's school.
I think you actually thought about what to wear today.
Cologne too?
It's a special day today.
Chief Kang, are you up to no good again?
What?
Don't you get sick of teasing me?
What do you take him for?
Get back to work, okay?
Chief Kang.
Thank you for your work today.
- Go home. - Okay.
- Thank you, everyone. - Thank you.
Bye.
Don't you think there's a different air about Chief Kang?
- He's more... - He seems more intelligent.
He's gotten calmer.
He's not so reckless anymore.
You should learn from Chief Kang.
You're the worst one.
Hello, Mr. Kang.
Hello. I'm sorry that I'm late.
I didn't think you'd come.
Why wouldn't I come to my daughter's advisor meeting?
- You should go in. - Okay.
How can they change completely?
Eun Bi's grandfather is an owner of oilfield.
It's still preposterous.
What about Eun Bi's mom?
How could she leave her child to her husband?
I know. She's not your average woman.
I wish I also had a rich father.
If I had money,
I'd write my script and produce it on my own.
You got that wrong.
What's so unusual about a father...
coming to his child's advisor meeting?
If the mother is busy,
the father can come instead.
You shouldn't make such sexist comments.
Do you even know my wife?
How could you judge her personality...
and her skills at work?
Ho Rim.
Honey.
- Dad. - Ho Rim.
My family is unusual indeed.
Eun Bi, are you happy to see me after such a long time?
- Mom. - Yes?
I'm sleepy.
You're sleepy?
Go to sleep. Come here.
Aren't you happy to see me?
We haven't seen each other for a month, right?
Of course I am. Why didn't you tell me you're coming?
I wanted to surprise you.
You don't seem surprised at all.
I was very surprised.
By the way, you look so handsome today.
Did you cut your hair? Did you lose weight?
You had a hard time, didn't you?
Stop it. I'm driving right now.
Okay.
I'll let you drive.
- Where's Dad? - I don't know.
What's wrong? Did I do something wrong?
No, you didn't.
Then why are you upset?
I'm not upset.
Forget it. I'm the one who's upset.
You told me to focus only on writing.
Why did you let me go?
You should have stopped me.
Honey, that's not why.
Do you even know that today is my birthday?
It's my birthday today.
Instead of congratulating me,
you're brusque because you're upset.
You made me feel nervous as soon as I arrived.
What have you done for me?
Honey, why don't we go over there to talk?
- No thanks. - Come this way.
I've been waiting for today for so long.
Why are the lights turned off?
No, Ji Young.
It's not ready yet.
What's going on?
- Surprise. - Surprise.
Ho Rim.
Couldn't you bring...
Ji Young on time?
I'm sorry.
What's going on?
I put on an act for your surprise birthday party.
Why would I be upset?
I haven't seen you for a month.
How could you lie to me?
Didn't you see that you hurt my feelings?
How could you?
Wait a minute.
Hello? Hello?
Over here.
Who are you?
I came to see Saeed Faad Ali.
That's me.
Dad.
Mom said that you're my dad.
Who...
Who are you?
You gave birth to me 13 years ago.
I'm the son of Susan Elizabeth.
She's 12 years younger than you.
In Agrigento, Sicily.
It's the woman you met on the steps of Turkey Inn.
This is wrong.
Isn't this wrong? It's what you told me.
Well, I...
I said that I'm not married.
I didn't say that...
I had no other woman in my life.
Right, it doesn't end, does it?
It's been a while since I threw a punch.
I, Saeed Faad Ali,
am proud of having no record of failure.
My trip to Korea was another victory of mine.
I found the most precious things in my life.
As such, I decided to treat everyone.
Anyone who wants to come can ride my private jet.
They fly to Bodoantia, my gigantic homeland.
I'll boast about my inheritance, history,
and accomplishments in Bodoantia.
With all the things that are the best in the world,
I'll feed, provide places to sleep, and give presents...
to my daughter and friends.
I love it.
Every night,
we'll throw a party.
Party.
Come on, baby. That's enough.
The world
Hasn't abandoned me yet
I didn't like to live
Based on my fate
Born in a tough desert
Like a growing cactus
I want to live like the flames
That's what I want
Ji Young.
Goodness.
Eun Bi.
Ji Young.
Father.
Count. My lady.
- Stop it. - Count.
Count.
Mom.
Eun Bi.
Wake up.
What was it? Wake up.
What was the line again?
- Dad... - I hit you.
That was great.
